Late this summer NCTC planted numerous pumpkin seeds. The resulting pumpkins from the seeds were to be entered into a contest put on by The Market Greenhouse to see who could raise the largest pumpkin.

NCTC was able to raise 1 prize pumpkin and multiple other smaller pumpkins. Many of the consumers helped with the planting as well as with the watering of the plants to help them grow. Stuart Spangler took the lead on the contest and entered the prize pumpkin on October 1st. The pumpkin came in weighing 87 lbs and measured 27" Long. Check back to hear how Stuart and NCTC finished in the contest.
